Phase 2/3

Because LGLL has continuously activated cytotoxic T lymphocytes, immunosuppressive therapy is the standard first-line therapy for T-LGLL and CLPD-NK. Previous studies showed that the overall response rate (ORR) of first-line oral immunosuppressants ranged from 21% to 85% (median: 50%). Both methotrexate and cyclosporine A are LGLL first-line treatment options, but the CR rate of methotrexate is only 21%, while the CR rate of CsA is less than 5%. There is insufficient evidence for the treatment of LGLL with prednisone and other glucocorticoids, but it can reduce RA-related inflammation and increase granulocyte levels. The TPM regimen was designed by the investigators. A pilot prospect observation showed that 18/20 (90%) patients obtained response, including 80% CR. This study is a prospective multiple center clinical trail to evaluate the efficacy of TPM regimen in the treatment of symptomatic LGLL. Eligible patients choose the initial treatment plan: thalidomide 50-100mg qn+ prednisone 0.5-1mg / kg qod +methotrexate 10mg / m2 / week. Four months is one course. Maximum three courses will be given if there is a response and thalidomide maintenance will be for another year.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
